Description
Harvesting Time. Reduce. Reuse. Recycle
-----
What's in common between a pile of red apples and a stack of empty glass bottles from the beer or other drink you may ask, and why did they make it into one picture? My first, instant answer would be- because I liked a view of them laying one next to each other. Then a couple other comments would come. It was autumn, the middle of the apple harvesting season when I took this photo. We had a lot of apples piled in our garden. One day I went by and spotted a pile of freshly washed bottles my dad had prepared for recycling. They were shining in the sun with a layer of red apples making a nice background for them. Both apples and bottoms of bottles perfectly round, layered in a similar pattern, matching by their earthly colors. This view instantly brought the title to my head; "Harvesting time" (for both- apples and bottles. Also, both can be recycled of some sort. Fresh apples can be turned into jams or juice while bottles can be either sold for recycling in manufactured way, or reused, as containers for homemade apple juice. Everyone wins! This is how simple things we may often overlook in our lives, turn into the environnmental concept, activism in art.
